Love Unspoken

Alexander smoked a few cigarettes while the guy kept talking.

Forty minutes later, a stretch limo screeched to a halt nearby.

Walter stepped out, slamming the door behind him. He walked up to Alexander and bent down to peer inside. "Mr. Kennedy, I brought the money." Alexander glanced at him and said nothing.

Walter chuckled. "What's going on? How did Ernest end up kidnapping Quinn?"

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" Alexander shot back coldly.

Alexander pushed open the car door and got out, standing toe-to-toe with Walter, his gaze icy.

Walter smiled, meeting Alexander's stare without flinching. "What does this have to do with me?"

Alexander sneered. "Walter, you always think you're so clever."

Walter's smile wavered.

"You think you can control everything, play me and Landon against each other, hoping we'll both lose," Alexander continued. "Isn't this all your doing?"

"No wonder you won't admit your identity to her. You know what you've done can't come to light."

Walter's smile vanished completely, leaving only a faint curve. He appeared no longer as relaxed as before.

He didn't deny it; his actions had implicated Quinn. Worse, he had even kidnapped her and done unforgivable things.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Mr. Kennedy, you're not much better than me."

Walter added, "Let's not waste time. Let's go save her."

Alexander didn't argue. He turned and got into the limo.

Walter followed.

They drove down the asphalt road, which had no intersections, leaving Ernest and his crew with nowhere to go.

By now, Ernest had reached the end of the road, which led to a cliff. Below was a slope, but it was too dark to see the details.

They parked by the roadside, too scared to go down.

Ernest paced anxiously. "Do you think Alexander will bring the money?"

"Don't worry. He will. He won't abandon Quinn," the masked man said confidently.

Ernest was still jittery. "But even if he brings the money, how do we get away?"

"Quinn is our leverage; they won't act recklessly. Besides, if he comes alone, we have numbers and a gun. Worst case, we kill him."

'He's just a guy I hired for a few hundred bucks, and he's this fearless?' Ernest thought.

The masked man said, "We're in too deep. What choice do we have? We can't just die here."

Ernest scratched his head in frustration. "But after we get the money, where do we go? How do we escape?"

"I've got it covered. Someone will pick us up," the masked man reassured him.

Ernest eyed him suspiciously. "Who are you? One of Landon's guys?"

The masked man didn't answer. He looked into the distance, where lights flickered. "He's here."

Ernest didn't have time to ponder the masked man's identity. He looked up and saw car lights cutting through the trees, sweeping towards them.
